So frustrating
Have you ever been feeling okay and then suddenly an old intrusive thought comes back but worse and you can’t seem to get past it as easily?

I have this 😞 sometimes with certain themes/triggers I’ll be fine and I can think to myself “why was I worrying so much about that that’s so silly” and it will be in the back of my mind, but say I see a post/situation with the theme/trigger, it will light a fire and appear serious/ something I need to “solve” again and my ocd goes crazy over it again right after thinking that the theme was silly previously

OCD does that a ton. I’m slowly getting over a lot of intrusive thoughts, but they will creep up every so often.

Going through this now. ROCD is in the house here, and after struggling for a while wish intrusive thoughts about leaving my partner for no reason, we went on vacation and everything was good, I was over the moon and even cried of happiness. Cut to some days later, I’m in my bedroom and the thought of him having spoken to other girls when we met (we met on Tinder and made things serious after two months) makes me sick and OCD flares up again and again and again. Rationally, I know it’s dumb to see this as a problem (I was literally doing that too, that’s the premise of Tinder), and YET of course OCD latched onto it.

It’s almost like a mind game!!! You tell yourself you feel better and then out of the blue!

Question, anyone have a day where there’s no intrusive thoughts or irrational worries, but then you start to feel a little anxious for no apparent reason; so your mind immediately jumps to the thoughts that usually bother you?

Does anyone recall a time where intrusive thoughts didnt bother you then all of a sudden they bothered you and you couldn’t tell the difference between your memories and intrusive thoughts.

Does anyone ever get over an ocd thought, then weeks later boom it comes back and you spend the next However long it takes getting over it again and start thinking what if something really did happen. Iv spent the last few months going back over this thought and keep thinking it’s real!
